Flipped Learning, yes or no?
Reflect on your learning style. What sort of a Learner are you? Think about how you would react to Flipped Learning. Share what a struggle you may have adapting to a Flipped Learning experience.
I am such an old school learner, I have no problem listening to a teacher lecture for a few hours and taking notes. I learn when I am actively listening and writing information down. For my brain, it is like I am processing it twice and I am more likely to remember the information. Usually in class, this is my preferred way of learning, I am not sure if it is very good or if I am just used to this method of teaching. I think it also stems from being shy and with this method, I generally do not have to participate and I can just sit there listening. I am also an independent learner so in theory, flipped learning would be ideal for me.
Flipped learning is an interesting concept I have never really heard about. The idea of the student teaching themselves then coming to school the following day and doing their homework with help if needed from the teacher is kind of odd to me. I understand this might work for some students, but I see this being a little hard for most. I like to listen to a lecture and see lessons worked through with the teacher, this is how I know if I am doing it correct. I guess watching a video of a lecture would work for me, but if it was something hands on like science or math, I do not think flipped learning would be good for me. If you get stuck along the way, there is not really anyone to ask for help. I think this is a possibility for some things during school, but not all subjects. I would definitely be interested in trying this out a lesson geared toward elementary students to see what it would look like for students. Flipped learning seems like it would work for college or high school students because essentially in college, you are kind of teaching yourself sometimes. I think flipped learning has potential in the classroom, but not for the entire curriculum.
